Community Space Coordinator & Host

The role of Community Space Coordinator is a brilliant opportunity to join our Community Team at our coworking space, Bayspace. Set within a renovated and iconic Grade II listed building with spectacular views of St. Ives Bay, Bayspace will inspire creativity, connection with the local community and provide opportunities for both start-ups and well-established businesses.

You will be primarily based at our workspace reception, greeting members, signing visitors in, and directing meeting room and event attendees within the space. You will also help with the planning and delivery of our events programme. In addition, you will hold a range of operational, technical, and administrative duties to ensure our ‘back of house’ runs like clockwork.
